空闲文本编辑器/Python2.7/Mac OS X/&quot;URLError:<urlopen error no host given> ”

Question

I put in this script to IDLE 2.7.14

import urllib2
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
quote_page = 'http:www.bloomberg.com/quote/SPX:IND'
page = urllib2.urlopen(quote_page)

Traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):

"/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py
", line 1126, in do_request_
    raise URLError('no host given')
URLError: <urlopen error no host given>
>>> 

Backstory: I installed and uninstalled BeautifulSoup, Pycharm, and downloaded Python 2x earlier...

Answer 1

Your URL is incorrectly formed. It should be:

quote_page = 'http://www.bloomberg.com/quote/SPX:IND'
